[{"type":"text","content":"\nNEW YORK, Nov. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the important November 27, 2018 lead plaintiff deadline in the shareholder class action lawsuit against MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT” or the “Company”) (OTCMKTS: MGTI). The lawsuit seeks to recover damages on behalf of those who purchased the securities of MGT between October 9, 2015 and September 7, 2018, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).\n If you purchased MGT securities, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options, please visit MGT Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Daniel Sadeh toll free at (877) 779-1414 or [email protected].

The SEC complaint alleges that defendants were participants in “highly profitable ‘pump-and-dump’ schemes…from 2013 through 2018” in the stock of three public companies, including MGT. The SEC complaint further alleges that the schemes “enrich[ed] Defendants by millions of dollars, [and] left retail investors holding virtually worthless shares.” On this news, MGT stock fell $0.195 per share, or over 33%, over the next two trading days to close...
